Mao Zedong proclaims the founding of the People's Republic of China in Beijing on Oct. 1, 1949. — Mao Zedong proclaims the founding of the People’s Republic of China in Beijing on Oct. 1, 1949.

The Evil Red Empire called Red China or People’s Republic of China(Mandarin. Zhonghua Renmin Gongheguo) was proclaimed at Peking( now Beijing) by Communist Party Chairman Mao Zedong or Mao Tse-Tung on October 01, 1949. He formulated a vision of Empire building using a Policy of Expansionism during the late 1940s. Red China expanded its territory after the Communist victory in all of China. Apart from keeping territories gained by China in its historical past, Red China during 1950 attacked Tibet which had declared its independence after the downfall of Manchu China( the Ch’ing or Manchu dynasty) that ruled China from 1644 to 1912. The following Provinces and Autonomous Regions of Red China bear mute testimony to the great problem of its Territorial Expansionism:

1. Tibet, Xizang Autonomous Region.
2. Sichuan Province(Szechwan, annexed Tibetan territory).
3. Qinghai Province(Tsinghai annexed Tibetan territory).
4. Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region( Sinkiang Uigur)
5. Inner Mongolian Autonomous Region(Nei Monggol).
6. Liaoning Province, Jilin Province(Kirin), and Heilongjiang Province(Heilungkiang) which together represent Manchuria.

The problem of Red China’s Expansionism in South China Sea must be studied in conjunction with the above problems of annexed territory. The United States will not succeed in its efforts to address the problem of Red China’s land reclamation activities in South China Sea without resolving The Great Problem of Tibet.

BEIJING — The United States and China held firm Saturday to deep disagreements over increasingly assertive Chinese activity in disputed areas of the South China Sea, as Beijing politely but pointedly rejected U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s push for it to reduce tensions.

After meeting in the Chinese capital, both Kerry and China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi stressed the importance of dialogue to resolve the competing claims, but neither showed any sign of bending in their positions over Chinese land reclamation projects that have alarmed the United States and China’s smaller neighbors. The U.S. and most members of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations want a halt to the projects, which they suspect are aimed at building islands and other land features over which China can claim sovereignty.

“We are concerned about the pace and scope of China’s land reclamation in the South China Sea,” Kerry said, urging China to speed up talks with ASEAN on binding guidelines on how maritime activity in disputed areas should be handled. “And, I urged China, through Foreign Minister Wang, to take actions that will join with everybody in helping to reduce tensions and increase the prospect of diplomatic solutions.”

“I think we agree that the region needs smart diplomacy in order to conclude the ASEAN-China code of conduct and not outposts and military strips,” Kerry told reporters at a joint news conference with Wang.

But Wang signaled that while China was prepared to talk, it would not back down on the construction which he said “is something that falls fully within the scope of China’s sovereignty.”
“The determination of the Chinese side to safeguard our own sovereignty and territorial integrity is as firm as a rock, and it is unshakable,” he said. “It has always been our view that we need to find appropriate solutions to the issues we have through communications and negotiations that we have among the parties directly concerned with peaceful and diplomatic means on the basis of respecting historical facts and international norms. This position will remain unchanged in the future.”

Wang added that the differences between China and the U.S. could be managed “as long as we can avoid misunderstanding and, even more importantly, avoid miscalculation.”
The Chinese claims and land reclamation projects have rattled the region where South China Sea islands and reefs are contested by China and five other Asian governments and activities have led to clashes, accompanied by nationalistic protests and occasional serious diplomatic implications.

The U.S. says it takes no position on the sovereignty claims but insists they must be negotiated. Washington also says ensuring maritime safety and access to some of the world’s busiest commercial shipping routes is a U.S. national security priority.

China has bristled at what it sees as U.S. interference in the region and wants to negotiate with the ASEAN countries individually, something those much smaller nations fear will not be fair.
In one disputed area, the Spratly Islands, U.S. officials say China has reclaimed about 2,000 acres of dry land since 2014 that could be used as airstrips or for military purposes. The U.S. argues that man-made constructions cannot be used to claim sovereignty.

Obama administration officials have declined to comment on reports that it may deploy military assets, or that it is considering a demonstration of freedom of navigation within 12 nautical miles of the islands’ notional territorial zone. But they have said many of the features claimed by China in the disputed Spratlys are submerged and do not carry territorial rights, and said that China cannot “manufacture sovereignty.”

Despite the clear disagreements over the South China Sea, Kerry and Wang said they were on track to make progress in other areas, notably on climate change, the fight against violent extremism and preparations for the next round of the U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue in June and Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to Washington in September. They expressed pleasure with their cooperation in the ongoing Iran nuclear talks, their solidarity in trying to denuclearize North Korea and combat diseases such as the deadly Ebola virus.
Kerry will wrap up the China portion of his Asia trip in meetings with Xi, Chinese State Councilor Yang Jiechi and the country’s top military officer.

On Sunday, Kerry heads to Seoul where he will be meeting senior South Korean officials and deliver a speech on cyber security and related issues.
Kerry will return to Washington after delivering a speech on a proposed Trans-Pacific trade agreement in Seattle on Tuesday.

THE EVIL RED EMPIRE – AIRSPACE EXPANSIONISM

THE EVIL RED EMPIRE – AIRSPACE EXPANSIONISM:

The term “The Evil Red Empire” describes the national entity founded by Communist leader Mao Zedong on October 01, 1949. To build an Empire, Mao Zedong formulated a Policy of Expansionism in late 1940s.

the evil red empire airspace expansionism

Airspace is the space extending up above an area of the earth’s surface; specifically, airspace refers to the space above a nation over which it can claim jurisdiction. Red China’s maritime expansionism in South China Sea poses a security threat as it involves the rights to use the airspace by other countries. With its land reclamation activities, Red China has expanded its claims to Land, Sea, and Airspace and is further willing to control that airspace by establishing its own Air Defence Identification Zone.

United States Navy and Air Force have no option other than that of challenging Red China’s illegal claim to sovereignty using land reclamation and building activity without any approval from its neighbors who have legitimate claims in that region.

U.S., CHINA SET FOR HIGH-STAKES RIVALRY IN SKIES ABOVE SOUTH CHINA SEA

By Greg Torode

HONG KONG (Reuters) – When the U.S. navy sent a littoral combat ship on its first patrol of the disputed Spratly islands in the South China Sea during the past week, it was watching the skies as well.

The USS Fort Worth, one of the most modern ships in the U.S. navy, dispatched a reconnaissance drone and a Seahawk helicopter to patrol the airspace, according to a little-noticed statement on the navy’s website.

While the navy didn’t mention China’s rapid land reclamation in the Spratlys, the ship’s actions were a demonstration of U.S. capabilities in the event Beijing declares an Air Defence Identification Zone (ADIZ) in the area – a move experts and some U.S. military officials see as increasingly likely.

“It’s not inevitable but if we are betting paychecks I’ll bet that they will eventually declare one, I just don’t know when,” said a senior U.S. commander familiar with the situation in Asia.
ADIZs are not governed by formal treaties or laws but are used by some nations to extend control beyond national borders, requiring civilian and military aircraft to identify themselves or face possible military interception.

China sparked condemnation from the United States and Japan when it imposed an ADIZ in the East China Sea, above uninhabited islands disputed with Tokyo, in late 2013.

Chinese military facilities now under construction on Fiery Cross Reef in the Spratlys, including a 3,000-metre (10,000-foot) runway and airborne early warning radars, could be operational by the year-end, said the U.S. commander, who declined to be identified.

Recent satellite images also show reclamation work on Subi Reef creating landmasses that, if joined together, could make space for a similar sized airstrip.
Growing concern in Washington that China might impose air and sea restrictions in the Spratlys once it completes work on its seven artificial islands is likely to be on the agenda when U.S.

Secretary of State John Kerry meets Chinese leaders in Beijing this weekend for previously scheduled talks.

TOUGH TO ENFORCE

Asia’s rising power claims sovereignty over most of the South China Sea, through which $5 trillion in ship-borne trade passes every year. The Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei also have overlapping claims.

China has said it had every right to set up an ADIZ but that current conditions in the South China Sea did not warrant one.

Enforcing such an ADIZ would be difficult even with two airstrips capable of handling fighter planes in the Spratlys, as well as an expanded airstrip on Woody island in the disputed Paracel island chain further north because of the distances involved, regional military officials and experts said.

The Spratlys for example lie more than 1,100 km (680 miles) from the Chinese mainland, putting China’s well-equipped airbases along its coastline well out of reach.
“Even with the new reclamations, it is going to be a stretch for China to routinely enforce such a zone that far south,” said Richard Bitzinger, a regional security analyst at Singapore’s S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies.

The Japanese and U.S. military ignore the ADIZ above the East China Sea, as does Japan’s two major carriers, ANA Holdings <9202.T> and Japan Airlines <9201.T>.

A study produced by the independent U.S. Congressional Research Service earlier this year noted that while China’s air force actively monitors that zone with ground radar from its coastline, it had generally shown restraint in enforcement.
China’s planes were unlikely to maintain a constant presence over the East China Sea, the study noted, citing a U.S. air force assessment.

RISK OF ESCALATION

The South China Sea might prove more problematic for China given the complexity of the dispute and the possibility of challenges from the U.S. navy and air force.

Indeed, on Tuesday, a U.S. official said the Pentagon was considering sending military aircraft and ships to assert freedom of navigation around the Chinese-made islands.
China’s Foreign Ministry responded by saying Beijing was “extremely concerned” and demanded clarification.

On Friday it accused the Philippines of working together with the United States to “exaggerate the China threat” over the Spratlys.
China had recently warned Philippine air force and navy planes at least six times to leave the Spratlys, the Philippine military commander responsible for the region said last week. The planes refused.

Zhang Baohui, a mainland security expert at Hong Kong’s Lingnan University, said he was worried about the risk of confrontation from any U.S. show of force.
“It’s reckless,” he said, referring to Washington’s latest plans.

“It has a built-in dynamic for unintended escalation,” he added. “Are they willing to take the consequences of this escalation?”
At sea, tensions are already apparent.

The naval statement about the USS Fort Worth, which can also hunt submarines and support amphibious landings, noted the ship “encountered multiple People’s Liberation Army-Navy warships” during its patrol. It did not go into detail.
“Our interactions with Chinese ships continue to be professional and (the Code for Unplanned Encounters at Sea) helps clarify intentions and prevent miscommunication,” Commander

Matt Kawas, the Fort Worth’s commanding officer, said in the statement.

THE EVIL RED EMPIRE – MILITARY EXPANSIONISM

THE EVIL RED EMPIRE – MILITARY EXPANSIONISM:

Red China’s land reclamation activities in South China Sea are mere symptoms of a serious disease called Military Expansionism. Red China is projecting its military power by acting against the interests of its neighbors for she thinks there is no one besides her. In Red China’s estimate, all other nations will submit to her superior military power or at a minimum avoid a direct military conflict to change her behavior. The word ‘APOCALYPSE’ means unveiling or revelation, it refers to a revelation depicting symbolically the ultimate destruction of Evil and triumph of Good. The word ‘DOOM’ refers to what is laid down, decree, judgment, a sentence of condemnation, destiny, tragic fate, ruin, to ordain as a penalty. Doomsayer is a person disposed to predicting catastrophe or disaster. As Doomsayer of Doom Dooma, I am predicting the downfall of The Evil Red Empire without the need for fighting against its military power.

“Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her
death, mourning and famine.
She will be consumed by fire,
for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.” (REVELATION 18:4)

U.S. Kerry to take tough approach in China over South China Sea

By David Brunnstrom

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry will leave China “in absolutely no doubt” about Washington’s commitment to ensuring freedom of navigation and flight in the South China Sea when he visits Beijing this weekend, a senior State Department official said on Wednesday.

Setting the scene for what could be contentious encounters with Chinese leaders, including President Xi Jinping, the official said Kerry would warn that China’s land reclamation work in contested waters could have negative consequences for regional stability – and for relations with the United States.

On Tuesday, a U.S. official said the Pentagon was considering sending military aircraft and ships to assert freedom of navigation around rapidly growing Chinese-made artificial islands in the disputed South China Sea.

China’s Foreign Ministry responded by saying that Beijing was “extremely concerned” and demanded clarification.

U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense David Shear told a Senate hearing the United States had right of passage in areas claimed by China. “We are actively assessing the military implications of land reclamation and are committed to taking effective and appropriate action,” he said, but gave no details.

Cui Tiankai, China’s ambassador to the United States, responded by warning Washington not to interfere in the South China Sea dispute and rebuked it for “double standards” in its criticism of Beijing, state news agency Xinhua said on Thursday.

“Just who is creating tensions in the South China Sea?” Cui was quoted as saying. “In the past few years, the United States has intervened in such a high-profile way. Is that to stabilize the situation or to further mess it up? The facts are out there.”

Cui, in an interview with Chinese media in the United States on Wednesday, noted that some countries had already begun reclaiming land on reefs that Beijing says belong to China, but the United States had not singled them out.

On the Pentagon’s plan to send military aircraft and ships to the South China Sea, Cui “stressed that many things in the world cannot rely on a show of force to solve them and that the knee-jerk ‘Cold War’ mentality to use force is outdated”.

The senior State Department official said “the question about what the U.S Navy does or doesn’t do is one that the Chinese are free to pose” to Kerry in Beijing, where he is due on Saturday for meetings with civilian and military leaders.

Kerry’s trip is intended to prepare for the annual U.S.-China Strategic and Economic Dialogue next month in Washington and Xi’s expected visit to Washington in September. But growing strategic rivalry rather than cooperation look set to dominate.

China’s Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said that freedom of navigation did not mean that foreign military ships and aircraft can enter another country’s territorial waters or airspace at will.

“YOU CAN’T BUILD SOVEREIGNTY”

The State Department official dismissed the idea that constructing islands out of half-submerged reefs gave China any right to territorial claims.
“Ultimately no matter how much sand China piles on top of a submerged reef or shoal … it is not enhancing its territorial claim. You can’t build sovereignty,” he said.

He said Kerry would “reinforce … the very negative consequences to China’s image and China’s relationship with its neighbors on regional stability and potentially on the U.S.- China relationship from their large-scale reclamation efforts and the behavior generally in the South China Sea.”

Beijing claims sovereignty over most of the South China Sea, through which $5 trillion in ship-borne trade passes every year. The Philippines, Vietnam, Malaysia, Taiwan and Brunei have overlapping claims.

Last month, the U.S. military commander for Asia, Admiral Samuel Locklear, said China could eventually deploy radar and missile systems on the islands it is building in the Spratly archipelago that could be used to enforce an exclusion zone should it move to declare one.

The U.S. official who spoke on Tuesday said U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter had requested options that include sending aircraft and ships within 12 nautical miles (22 km) of the reefs China has been building up.

U.S. President Barack Obama announced a strategic shift toward Asia in 2011 in response to growing Chinese power and influence, but critics have questioned his commitment to this “rebalance” given U.S. security distractions elsewhere in the world and stretched resources.

News of the possibly tougher U.S. stance came as the key economic pillar of the rebalance suffered a blow at the hands of Obama’s Democrats in the U.S. Senate, who blocked debate on a bill that would have smoothed the path for a 12-nation Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade deal.

Failure to clinch an agreement could damage Washington’s leadership image in Asia, where China has been forging ahead with a new Beijing-led Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB) seen as a challenge to U.S. global financial leadership.
